...so - one of our users had a simple request; he wanted to hide the banner flags that appear on top of your avatar in threads, profile pages, and on the member search page. Since this request was coming from a Supporter, I tend to oblige whenever feasible (sorry guys - but I will always give preferential treatment to users that are willing to help fund this site!!!) and added an option to the Preferences page which allow users to hide their banners.
Well - a mere 24hrs later, and this simple request managed to come to a head as somewhat "controversial" among the staff here. So fine - I've now gone back in and changed it so you can pick & choose which banners you want to hide.
Obviously, if you don't already have a specific banner showing on your avatar, you won't have the option to actually hide that banner. But, if you do have specific banners (moderator, dbadmin, supporter, ambassador, etc.) you can now suppress those flags individually...
...except for you, Rol. Yours are hardcoded and I'm not going to build more code, just to support one users vanity - yours are on, permanently. :P
